Until I, A Fallen Nobleman, Was Called the Great Sage With My Hazure Skill “Super Jack-of-All-Trades

“Lucera! Is Lucera here!”

As soon as his daughters left for Dragon Mountain, King Frederick walked through the castle to see his wife.

“…… What’s the matter, my dear?”

“Oh, Lucera. You didn’t tell Shiina and Grace anything, did you? They left to go help Verna with the dragon.”

Frederick caught Lucera in the hallway and asked her that. And then Lucera narrows her eyes and opens her mouth. She smiled a little bit.

“…… I didn’t say anything particular, you know? Do you think I would send my daughter all the way to a mountain with a dragon?”

“Uh-mu ……”

“I’m sure Verna will be the first to sacrifice herself. If Verna dies, they’ll be able to escape and return, and the dragon will be satisfied that we gave him the princess, right?”

“…… So that’s what you aim for. So that’s how much you hate Clary ……”

When Frederick said this, Lucera’s eyes lifted up and she closed in on him.

“Isn’t that obvious! I understand that you need a child in case something happens to you. Your father, the former king, took Clary as your concubine in order to have a boy because I could only have a girl. It’s okay because it’s a common practice in the royal family, but–“

“Then why ……”

When Frederick holds his eyebrows, Lucera suddenly became enraged and started screaming.

“Why ……? You’re saying that when you only cares about your mistress, Clary, and not about me. I may have wished that Clary had never existed, and I may have thought that I was no longer attractive. But you have no idea how miserable I was as your legal wife!”

“……”

Frederick didn’t know that he had pushed Lucera that far, but he listened quietly. Then–

“Verna Verna Verna …… ah, everyone …… I wish they’d all just disappear ……!”

“Lucera ……!? What’s wrong with you! I’ve definitely had my heart broken by Clary at times! I admit that. But that doesn’t mean I don’t love you!”

“That’s a lie! When I’m gone anyway ……!”

“Come on! Get a grip!”

When Lucera suddenly mumbles something with her hair all over the place, Frederick holds her shoulders and shouts. Her eyes are glazed over, and he decides that she is out of her mind, so he holds the raging Lucera in his arms and calls for someone.

“Somebody! Get a doctor!”

“What happened …… Oh, my queen, what happened to you!? Your Majesty, please go to your room first ……”

“Yes, please.”

Frederick took Lucera into her room and laid her down on the bed, where she began to sob convulsively.

“…… What the hell happened to you? It’s true that Lucera is strong-minded, and it’s probably true about Clary. But I’ve never seen her this distraught.”

After a while, a doctor arrived to examine Lucera.

“…… She looks very weakened. Do you have any idea what’s going on?”

“We’ve been eating well together, so nutrition shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Hmm, it could be psychological, then. I’ll make you some medicine to calm her down.”

“Thank you.”

I watched the doctor leave and looked at Lucera again. At that moment, Lucera opened her eyes slightly and was about to open her mouth.

“Y-You ……”

“Oh, you’re awake. I’m sorry, how can you ever forgive me for not paying attention to your feelings ……”

When Frederick took her hand and said this, Lucera looked at him and frowned. Frederick was prepared for resentment, but the words that came out of her mouth were unbelievable.

“There is something wrong with my body ……! There is a voice in my head telling me to destroy this country! Even now, uh, uhhhhh ……”

“What? What does that mean!”

Frederick shakes her body, not understanding what she is saying. However, she only groaned and could not hear anything, and eventually fainted.

“What the hell is going on? Has she been possessed by an evil spirit or something?”

The moment I tried to tuck Lucera’s limp body into bed…

Crack!

“Ngh!?”

With her eyes closed, Lucera’s hands began to strangle Frederick.

“W-What ……!? Lucera is not supposed to be unconscious ……”

“That’s right. She’s asleep now.”

“!?”

The sluggish neck lifts up …… and the eyes open. The color of Lucera’s eyes is blue, but the eyes that are currently staring at Frederick are purple.

“You’re not Lucera! Who the hell are you!”

When Frederick raised his voice, a shrill man’s voice that was clearly not Luciera’s echoed in the room.

“Kuku, I’m Luciela, remember? …… Well, not the one in the “now”, though? And what about the girls? Have they been eaten by the dragon yet?”

“Gugu …… What do you mean ……”

Frederick grabbed her hand, loosened it and asked. As the king of the country of knights, Frederick is not a weak man. But he could not remove the hand that was tightening with a force not unlike that of Lucera.

And something in the form of Lucera returned with a grin of amusement.

“You’re such a slow man. I guess that’s why you don’t know that I’m possessed, and you don’t know what’s in this woman’s heart.”

“……”

“Well, that’s okay. There’s no one here, so why don’t I just kill you, the king?”

“Guh …… Ah, can’t get out, what a strength…… A-At this rate ……!”

When Frederick is in a hurry, something in the form of Lucera smiled at him. The next moment, however, Frederick let go of his hand, fell off the bed, and began to suffer violently.

“Uh, ohhhhhhhh ……! Not yet …… I’m still conscious! Kuh, this country is mine! I’ll slaughter all the royals! Uh ……”

“Geuk …… Lucera!”

While coughing, Frederick supported Lucera as she collapsed like a puppet with broken strings.

“…… U-Uhhhh …… Court-, yard …… get, out ……”

“What? Lucera, pull yourself together ……”

Frederick grabbed her hand and whispered to himself. He wondered how long something had been haunting her body, and he wished he had paid more attention to it.

Then–

“Your Majesty, I have something to say.”

The minister’s voice came from behind the door, and Frederick looked up. He regained his composure and replied.

“What’s the matter, I’m busy taking care of her. Can we talk later?”

“I’m terribly sorry. However, a messenger from the Reflexion Country has arrived and is requesting an audience.”

“Reflexion? …… All right. I can’t just ignore a messenger from another country. Give Lucera an escort. She might get violent.”

“I understand.”

His daughter had left him, his wife had fallen ill, and he was on his way to the audience hall, grumbling in his heart.

I didn’t dare make it an intermission.

Thank you for reading!
